- Scientists have developed a chocolate biscuit that may aid in weight loss.
- The biscuit contains a bitter compound derived from the wormwood plant (Artemisia absinthium).
- A preliminary study showed that this ingredient increased satiety hormones and reduced hunger in participants.
- The bitter compound influences the release of ghrelin (hunger hormone) and GLP-1, similar to weight-loss injections like Wegovy.
- Researchers plan to conduct a clinical trial to investigate the biscuit's effects on obese patients.
